All About One+One
Synergy: adjective – “The interaction of two or more forces so that their combined result is greater than the sum of their individual effects.” One+One is just that.
James Zabiela and Nic Fanciulli first struck up a friendship during gigs in Asia in 2005. Their mutual understanding of each other’s music coupled with the fact they had fun and got into all sorts of mischief together made them inseparable. Throughout 2006 the pair experimented playing back2back, including New Year’s Day in Nic’s hometown of Maidstone, the sunnier climes of Miami’s WMC at Cafeteria and We Love… Space, Ibiza. All received rave reviews (no pun intended) and it was proof indeed JZ and Nic needed to take this idea further – and so ‘One+One’ is born.
The concept will encompass a world tour, which kicked off at this Miami’s WMC 2007. Lauded as one of the essential parties to attend the One + One launch & Boat Party (sell out events) did not disappoint. The lads then returned to the UK to more sell shows across Britain. Following this, in May, James & Nic set off for an extensive month long US tour. This will see the pair traveling like rock stars as they climb aboard a tour bus and gig their way around the country covering the length and breadth of America (with up to five shows a week). No rest for the wicked as directly after this tour, James & Nic then head off for a month of gigs in Asia and Australia (dates below) trailed by a full 3 months in Europe centered around Ibiza’s summer season.
AUSTRALIAN TOUR DATES

James and Nic will play back2back together on every show. It’ll be a multiple CD deck and laptop extravaganza of layering music, bending sounds and twisting beats to one mind-blowing effect. Debuting alongside James & Nic will be a new evolution in DJ gear: the Q2 Dual DJ. While playing back2back, the unit allows the guys to independently cue tunes as well as play with effects units, laptops and CDJs.
